Jim Goad on that ‘Kristallnact of the furries’

It may have been a purposefully malicious blow designed to send the untold thousands of newly proud and empowered furry fans—who’ve agitated for rights and acceptance since at least the early 1980s—back into the basement cedar closets where so many cruel and small-minded cowardly sadists seem convinced that they belong.

Repeat after me: Furry Lives Matter.
